I'll second the JSON suggestion. Assuming from your XML code example
that you're only ever going to have day/show nodes, here's the JSON:
{
'Monday' : [
{ time : "0800-1000", dj : "mc funk", name : "nonstop music" },
{ time : "1000-1200", dj : "mc rap", name : "nonstop music" }
],
'Tuesday' : [
{ time : "0800-1000", dj : "mc stoner", name : "nonstop music" },
{ time : "1000-1200", dj : "mc ambient", name : "nonstop music" }
]
}
The Javascript code looks like
$(function() {
$.ajax({
url:'test.php',
dataType:'json',
success:function(schedule) {
for (var day in schedule) {
$('body').append('<h3>' + day + '</h3>');
for (var i = 0; i < schedule[day].length; i++) {
var s = schedule[day][i];
$('body').append('<p>' + s.time + '<br />' + s.dj + '<br />'
+ s.name + '</p>');
}
}
},
error:function(r,t,e) { alert(t); }
});
});
Hope that helps .. JSON is about as lightweight as it gets.
